In the shadow of the lingonberry shrub

#nature #naturephotography #forest #mushroom #beetle #autumn

A close up photo of, in order from left to right, a tiny brown mushroom, a very small lingonberry shrub with one leaf growing over the cap of the mushroom, a small beetle sitting on the lingonberry shrub and a brown leaf, lying on its side so that it sticks up from the ground. In the blurry background there are to larger, but still quite small, brown/orange mushrooms and in the foreground some moss and forest debris.

An old Gothic crypt, lost and forgotten in the forest of Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

The vaulted ceiling is tall and arched with strong ribs in classic Gothic style. Long vines hang down from the ceiling, having worked their way down through the roof. The beautiful red and black floor tiles caught my eye as I walked in!

An abandoned, gothic-style stone crypt stands in a forest clearing. The crypt has a tall, narrow roof, a large pointed arch doorway with a partially open wooden door, and a decorative circular window above the entrance. The building is overgrown with ivy and vines, and is surrounded by trees with bare branches. The ground is covered in dirt and fallen leaves.

The image shows the interior of a brick and stone crypt or mausoleum. Several metal coffins or caskets are visible, resting on wooden and stone shelves. The space appears to be old and in a state of disrepair, with water on the floor and signs of decay

Snake head tree. Rainy evening on the Mattatuck Trail, Wolcott, Connecticut. May 31, 2018, 7:11 PM.

#hiking #photography #outdoors #landscapephotography #nature #Connecticut #spring #forest #rain #rainyday

On a rainy evening in the forest beneath a gray overcast sky a dead tree has rotted on the inside, leaving a top that is mostly bark. Folded over, it resembles the head and front body portion of a snake, with a well-placed hole creating its eye.

I stand in the middle of a forest path and smile - a bit forced - into the camera. The Sexten Dolomites rise in the back.
I sit cross-legged on the floor of a balcony at Talschlusshütte and feel groggy.

The edge of a forest flooded by sunlight. The Sexten Dolomites rise in the back.
In the morning at Sillianer Hütte: The Sexten Dolomites are illuminated by the rising sun. The Valley still lies in the shadows.

We take a pause to eat some cake and drink some cappuccino at Moos.
Some rabbits chill at Talschlusshütte.
We entered the flat part of this day's hike. Th way into the valley leads through tree-covered grassland. I marked the Sillianer Hütte, where we started in the morning, with a red arrow.

and in BC our precious rare primary and old growth forests are STILL being CHIPPED FOR BURNING in the UK!

I'm sorry for yelling it just makes me so angry!

independent.co.uk/news/busines… - or even "conservative" papers like the Financial Times reported on it ft.com/content/34550e7d-9d65-4… . It's hard to believe but it's true. They're cutting down the last of the giants to chip up to burn in the UK.

They call it green and sustainable, but these trees are older than Canada. If you've never seen one of these giants, please I beg you just look at this cbc.ca/news/canada/british-col… and imagine chipping that to burn for electricity.

Better but less famous coverage: evergreenalliance.ca/forest-ne… and biofuelwatch.org.uk/2024/drax-…

Government urged to end subsidies as Drax accused of burning old forest wood

An investigation found that Drax sourced whole logs from primary and old growth forests in Canada.

Last photos from that day in the #schwarzwald . We were pretty surprised when we came to the part shown in the last photo. The #moss was so thick there - like a real carpet! I've never seen such before. I found it pretty hard to get a photo that pays the situation justice. I hope it works for you.

Nestled deep within a lush, verdant forest, this narrow trail invites hikers into a world of tranquil solitude and natural beauty. The path, a winding ribbon of earthy brown, is gently bordered by moss-covered rocks and boulders, their vibrant green hues suggesting centuries of undisturbed growth. Sunlight filters through the dense canopy above, casting dappled patterns of light and shadow across the forest floor, where fallen leaves and pine needles create a soft, rustling carpet.
Moss blankets the forest floor and climbs up the sides of ancient trees, its vivid green hues contrasting beautifully with the darker bark and scattered brown leaves. Ferns, delicate and intricate, emerge from the undergrowth, their fronds swaying gently in the light forest breeze. A small, trickling stream crosses the path, its rocky bed glistening with moisture, adding a soothing soundtrack to the tranquil scene.
Nestled deep within an ancient forest, this enchanting trail winds its way through a lush, green sanctuary. The path, a narrow ribbon of earthy brown, is softly bordered by vibrant moss-covered mounds that seem to glow with an almost magical luminescence. The moss, a rich emerald green, blankets the rocks and ground, creating a plush carpet that adds to the forest's serene ambiance. Towering trees, their trunks dark and sturdy, rise majestically on either side of the trail, their branches weaving a dense canopy overhead. Filtered sunlight dances through the leaves, casting dappled shadows and bathing the forest floor in a soft, ethereal light. Ferns and other undergrowth add layers of texture and depth, their delicate fronds swaying gently in the light forest breeze.

Day 5 / Schwarzwald’s Black Lake and Wild Mossy Paths

On day five in the Schwarzwald, we hiked another one of Baiersbronn’s great "Himmelswege" trails. While the hike started along forest roads, the highlight was circling a tranquil, mirror-like lake surrounded by lush moss.

There's an incredible diversity in the world of fungi and I just love observing all the different strategies they've developed to not only survive but strive in the ever-changing world they live in.
